The first time I walked into Grainger Hall, the only thing I remember feeling is overwhelmed. Overwhelmed at all it had to offer, and how I would fit into it. Going into my first year as a pre-business student, many of my peers and I found the business school an intimidating place. It was difficult to navigate, and even more difficult to try and figure out everything that was going on! I fervently wished for an upperclassman who had gone through what I was to lend a helping hand. Though I had to learn the hard way, myBiz can provide you the answer to many of your questions and more! Here are the 7 things I wish I'd known fall of last year as a pre-business freshman:
1. Free food is everywhere!
Orientation events, club kickoff meetings, student org fairs, Welcome Week events, dorm activities, etc. almost always offer the added incentive of free food. Attend as many orientations and events as possible- not only will you find out more information about activities that interest you, but you can also pick up some pizza along the way!
Last year, I found that many of peers simply didn't take the time to look for resources available to them. Student organizations are incredibly valuable when it comes to building leadership, fostering teamwork, and of course meeting new people! (See below) The earlier you go out and take advantage of these opportunities, the more you'll know and have an edge over your peers. Keep these dates in mind for fall:
Networking doesn't always mean going out and building professional relationships- it can mean reaching out to other students by making a new friend or chatting with a professor after class. College is the best time to start building your network (and do it early) because you're constantly meeting new people. The connections you make now could land you a job after college! The friends and connections I made my first year gave me advice on classes, finding internships, and even on applying to the business school.
After you meet someone, it's also important to take it a step further with a professional-oriented social media site like LinkedIn. Keep in mind LinkedIn isn't just for professionals! There are numerous advantages for college students: potential employers could find your resume, you will stand out since students make up less than 20% of membership, and you'd be on what's considered the industry standard networking site. I created my LinkedIn account last year knowing that connecting with my professors and peers now will pay off in the future.
3. Upperclassmen are more friendly than they may seem
The last thing I wanted to do as a freshman was talk to upperclassmen. Already so familiar with campus, they seemed intimidating and unapproachable- it was difficult enough meeting people my age! As classes began though, I realized that in college, upperclassmen are peers. The age gap that seems impassable in high school becomes much smaller in college.
Outside of class, the upperclassmen I met gave me great advice on everything from getting around campus to choosing courses. I felt so much more prepared to tackle new student orgs, try new classes, and attend new events because I got advice from upperclassmen who had been exactly where I was.
4. Using academic resources (like the Business Learning Center) isn't nerdy
Classes at the college level, you'll soon figure out, are more rigorous than those in high school in many ways. The first being the amount of independent study you'll be required to do. That being said, I found Econ 101 one of the most challenging courses of my freshman year. A core pre-business class, I knew it was something I needed to succeed in.
The Business Learning Center (BLC), located on the second floor of Grainger, was instrumental in helping me get the help I needed. The first time I walked into a session, I was surprised to find many of my classmates already there! Don't hesitate to contact the BLC for help in any quantitatively based business course like economics, accounting, math, or statistics.
5. It's never too early to start preparing for interviews and internships
As freshmen, your focus will be on transitioning to college and keeping your grades up, but that doesn't mean internships are only for upperclassmen. Something I figured out early on was that the Business Career Center (BCC), located on third floor of Grainger, gives great career advice no matter your year in school. Familiarize yourself with the process of writing a resume and cover letter, getting it edited, and how to start looking for internships.
One of the best things I did for myself last year was visit the BCC and meet with my career advisor. I got great advice on how to prepare for interviews as a freshman, and how to proceed in the future. Even if you have a lot going on your first year, always keep your future career goals in the back of your mind!
6. It's ok to be "undecided" about a major
Few first-year students know exactly what they want to study when they start school in the fall. So if you're unsure of exactly which direction to go in, you still have a lot of time to figure things out! It's perfectly fine to try lots of different things until you find one that's right for you, even if it may not be within the business school.
If you already have a specific major in mind, check out interest-specific student orgs to learn more and get a head start. Don't feel pressured to choose a major though- the average college student switches majors three times before they graduate. I'm already one-third of the way there!
7. For some things, be prepared to be unprepared
The bottom-line is that as a freshman, lots of things will be new and unfamiliar to you. But by the time second semester rolls around, you'll wonder why you were so nervous in the first place. No matter how prepared you feel for anything you might come across, know that you can't be prepared for everything. You'll face challenges, but overcome them. Mostly importantly, never be afraid to ask for advice!

RIP OFF!! – This place is a rip off!!!! My daughter planned her 20th birthday party there...paid $400.00 for suite for one night & notified management that there would be approx 30 people. The management knew of this prior and never was it a problem....UNTIL....security deceide to close down the party & kicked them out at 10:15 (12 people were in attendance...there was some drinking but only to the one that were 21 yrs or older) music was not loud and efforts were made to keep the atmosphere low key.....didnt matter....General Manager was arrogant & not willing to comprise a mutual reimbursement.....I was told they had to clean up the room, RIDICULOUS!! we clean up before we left being we were there only 7 hrs, checked in at 3:00 out by 10:15 p.m..I guess Rumor is in the habit of taking kids hard earned money ($400.00) then kicking them out! I would NEVER recommend this "resort" to ANYONE!!
one of the best hotels for the amount we paid – i love love love this hotel we just staid there because we couldnt afford to stay at the hardrock since we were gonna attend a concert there and this is just across the street its off the strip but its still as chic as a top hotel. I love the friendly staff that met us its valet but its worth it u dnt have to pay extra for it either. every thing in the hotel looked brand new and well kept and clean. i will really would come back to stay here again specially in the summer when the pool is open. the room itself was amazing so spacious and decorated so good that i might just decorate my house like it well atleast the colored of the walls i loved it. the bathrooms are so awesome too i love how the lay out of the room n bathroom. i strongly recomend this hotel its cheap and its so pretty, confortable and clean.....clean....clean.
Beautiful and off the strip – After a night of partying on the strip, we wanted to have a decent conversation without shouting or losing our voices. The Rumor is off the strip and hidden a bit. What a cute boutique hotel. When you first walk in, you are greeted by front desk (or not). Around the corner is the bar and tucked away further left is their restaurant. The bartender provided us with interesting drinks and they were good. It was refreshing to just talk without shouting. The ambiance is cool and mixed decor. The staff here is nice without being snubby. Good to go.
4 Star South Beach hotel in the middle of Las Vegas – There is no other hotel like this one in Vegas. If you like South Beach or Palm Springs, you will be in heaven. The decor is the sexiest in Vegas....hands down. The lounge and restaurant is a perfect gathering spot for cocktails. I didn't get a chance to try the food but the menu looked top notch. In regards to food/beverage, I would recommend you grab some soft drinks from the CVS across the street b/c the vending machine was broken. The maid service did much more than I expected and actually tried to come back multiple times since I was sleeping in. I took pictures of the bathroom because we decided we wanted to rennovate our bathroom at home just like the ones at Rumor. The pool wasn't crowded which was relaxing and the music was exactly what we look for while on vacation (we get sick of hearing the same radio songs over and over....the music reminded me of being at a modern 5 star spa).
I am suggesting this resort to my best friend for her wedding. The courtyard is ideal for a 150 room hotel wedding. We can't wait to go back!

Comments about Blonde Mom's Baby Shower-blue Baby Shower Invites:
I was giving a shower for my daughter--and my first grandbaby! I invited my best girl friends and wanted a really cute, unusual invitation. My daughter has blond hair and there was a choice about hair color--and boy and girl colors--how fun! It looked as if it had been specially designed for her--and I could write my own text! I had a question about several items that I purchased, and left a message. Danielle called me back and was so knowledgable. I asked opinions about some of my choices, what font would look best on a onesy, and several more. She was so nice--and was able to assure me that everything would go in one box so that I could avoid an extra shipping charge. Great customer service!
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

EHS, Happy Valley hope to challenge Lady Blue Devils3:01 am | March 14, 2013
Returning the bulk of its sub-state team from one year ago, Unicoi County continues to wear the target on the softball diamond in the Three Rivers Conference.
If Elizabethton or Happy Valley has its way, the Lady Blue Devils will be dropped from their perch this season.
With experience in the field and on the mound, the neighboring rivals along with a talented Sullivan East team are looking to make noise of their own in the state's Class AA softball ranks as the 2013 season gets underway.
Johnson County also returns some experienced players, while Sullivan North looks to improve from its recent play toward the bottom of the league.

>Gears and Wears>Motorola ACTV
Burninated Peasant
Back when I used to work for Motorola, I submitted a request that they create a running watch/mp3 player that would pair with a phone to track workouts in real time with sites like RA. Looks like they finally listened to me, and threw in heart-rate monitoring headphones to boot:
http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/article.php?a=9102&p=4451. I won't be trying it anytime soon, since I'm a tightwad and I also have to let some injuries heal before I can put any real mileage in again, but I'd be interested in hearing how this works for anyone that actually acquires one.
I'd be curious if it would sync with RA. The promo info only states that it passes the data off to Motorola's new running log. Boo.
I got a little excited about it until I hit the dirt this morning on a trail run in the dark. My Garmin 305 hit pretty hard and was no worse for the wear. I'm sure the ACTV would have been smashed into bits.
I assumed there would be some way to extract a .gpx or something. Plus, since it is an android device, it's only a matter of time before someone roots it and makes it customizable.
I think this thing will be awesome....for *some* people anyway. Hope they listen to the communities and make it downloadable to any log.
An in-depth review of the device is up on the DCRainmaker blog. Really interesting product. I don't run with music, but alot of folks do. Garmin really has some competition now with products like this and the Timex Run Trainer - should lead to better options for all of us down the road.
2012 Goals: 1:35-ish Half Mary ->(result 1:38:40). Bust the sub 20 5k barrier (19:54!!!!) and whoop the 1000 mile bunny (ok, bunny, you win).

Just bought this table and it is great once assembled. It is very sturdy and consequently very heavy. If you are planning on assembling yourself ensure you don't suffer from a bad back. It is impossible to lift by yourself. If you are lucky, the delivery chaps may put it together for you for a small fee :-) I bought the table online and was anxious as to whether it would live up to the pictures. I was not disappointed and am very pleased with this table for the very reasonable price paid, as I was with the total shopping experience with Top Furniture. Great communication online and per telephone. Many thanks Top Furniture.
Jeff Golding - 17-11-2012 |
Our delivery of table and four chairs arrived this morning, only minimal assembly of table legs needed, they really don't intend for this to wobble, super solid!!!
We were emailed a few days before delivery, and the delivery guys phoned us 15 minutes before they arrived, really excellent customer service.
As for the table and chairs, just beautiful quality, lovely build quality and superb value for money. These items are the best quality I have seen and represent excellent value, they will genuinely last a lifetime, I strongly recommend this company and I will definitely be a returning customer, thank you Top Furniture for an excellent deal, 5 ***** service and products.
Jeff and Jacquie Golding, Canvey Island, Essex.
Becky - 10-11-2012 |
Excellent customer service, delivered quickly as requested. Table is great quality and ideal for small spaces but with the option of extending. Would def use top furniture again as much better than some of the other 'oak' superstores.
Christine Andrea Bunting - 11-12-2012 |
This table and the country oak slotted back chairs arrived this morning . Didn't get the phone call but they were here at 07.34 so that will be why ! I was glad I didn't work Sunday night as I wouldn't have been in and would never have thought they would be here at that time !! But the table and chairs are amazing ! Pictures and little film on line not even close to just how gorgeous they are ! Hoping to move next year and would definitely buy more to match if I need it . Did I say this table and through chairs are just amazing !! Gorgeous.

2003 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Solari Reserve
Winemaker Notes
100% Estate grown fruit at Larkmead Vineyards
100% Cabernet Sauvignon Old Vines
Aged in 70% new French oak barrels for 20 months
Alcohol 14.7%
350 cases produced
"A delicious follow up to the hugely popular 2002 Solari, our 2003 bottling originates in the same two vineyard blocks, some of our oldest vines grown on our rockiest and deepest gravel soils. For the first time these two sources were harvested, fermented and barrel aged together, as a single lot, enhancing harmony and balance. The sense of power yet elegance and the prominent element of minerality these vines offer, gives this bottling its unique Larkmead signature. This is a wine of opulent dark fruit, velvety texture and lingering richness that still manages to maintain plenty of vibrancy and persistence on a long layered finish.
Bright ruby/purple. Intensely aromatic nose of black cherry, crème de cassis and black raspberry liqueur framed by mocha notes and typical Larkmead stony minerality. The palate is explosively fruit driven featuring a deep core of pure succulent black fruit of great intensity but also elegance. Flavors of sweet dark chocolate and coffee precede a lengthy finish that highlights vineyard-driven graphite and mineral power.
Decant for an hour in its youth to experience the wine's full range of flavors. This large-scaled wine will further concentrate for 3 years in bottle and hold for a decade."
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate 94 POINTS
"The blockbuster 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Solari Reserve is fabulous. Sadly, there are only 350 cases of this cuvee, which spent 20 months in 75% new French oak prior to bottling. Its deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by a knock-out nose of charcoal, crème de cassis, licorice and plums. Dense and full-bodied, with admirable purity, texture, and balance as well as a seamless finish, it should be consumed over the next 15-20 years."

Lenovo Dives into Sub-Notebook Computing with First Consumer "Netbooks"
VIETNAM, August 5, 2008 – Lenovo today announced it is entering the "netbook" market with the IdeaPad S9 and S10 netbooks. Lenovo designed the super-slim, super-small IdeaPad S9 and S10 netbooks to complement a customer's primary PC or as a first-time, introductory PC purchase. The IdeaPad S9 and S10 netbooks allow users to do simple activities such as dive the Internet, check and write emails, listen to music and run basic applications. Approximately one inch thin with models weighing just over 0.9kg, the IdeaPad S9 and S10 netbooks typify thin and light design.
"IdeaPad netbooks are the latest in a string of recently announced Lenovo products, designed specifically for consumers worldwide and developed through our heritage of technological innovation and exceptional engineering," said Tran Hai Linh, Country General Manager, Lenovo Vietnam. "As rapidly as the technology changes, today's consumers are looking for mobile products that feature the best of basic computing functions in an extremely compact and affordable form, and Lenovo designed the IdeaPad netbooks for that purpose."
Consumer demand for netbooks is growing rapidly around the world. IDC forecasts worldwide shipments of ultra-low cost notebooks rising from just 430,000 units in 2007 to 9.2 million in 2012.1
A Palette Full of Style, Color and Convenience The 8.9-inch screen IdeaPad S9 and 10.2-inch screen IdeaPad S10 netbooks come in glossy flavors of deep blue, pastel pink and ruby red as well as in classic white and bold black. For a comfortable, more natural computing experience, Lenovo designed the keyboard to be 85 percent of the size of a full-function notebook PC's keyboard, and an energy-efficient LED backlit display helps provide longer battery life than traditional displays.
For easy connection to the Internet, the netbooks feature WiFi and optional Bluetooth connectivity and also have an Express Card slot so users can enable the netbooks for optional high speed mobile broadband connectivity.2 Often used as a social networking device, the netbooks come with tools that optimize the experience such as a built-in web camera for video messaging, and its two USB ports and a 4-in-1 multicard reader make connecting other devices and transferring photos, music and videos simple. IdeaPad netbooks come equipped with either Microsoft Windows XP or Linux.
Using the Intel® Atom™ processor, the IdeaPad netbooks provide basic notebook functionality as a user's secondary PC. The Lenovo netbooks offer up to 1GB of memory and either 160 GB of hard disk drive space or 4 GB of solid state drive storage, making them ideal for accommodating a variety of data, from a user's digital music inventory to a student's homework assignments and more. Lenovo engineered the netbooks to reduce the heat emitted on key contact areas such as the bottom of the PC, the palm rest and the keyboard. Additionally, Lenovo's OneKey™ Recovery on Microsoft Windows-based netbooks helps users recover data at the touch of a button should a system error or virus occur.
Pricing and Availability3 The IdeaPad netbooks will be available from mid September. The Lenovo IdeaPad S10 will be available at prices starting at USD 529 through leading retailers and Lenovo business partners. The Lenovo IdeaPad S9 will be available exclusively through affinity deals.

Officer Carlos Manfredi said witnesses in the city's Bayview District reported hearing the woman screaming. She was taken to a hospital burn unit with life-threatening injuries.
Investigators believe her attacker was 22-year-old Dexter Oliver.
Manfredi said Oliver had a "dating relationship" with the woman, but he did not know the circumstances that led to the attack.
The victim's sister told KGO-TV that Oliver doused his girlfriend with gasoline and lit her on fire during an argument at a nearby Laundromat.
Precious Craig said most of her sister's face was burnt, and that the family expects her to recover.

Lack of communication ultimately led to embarrassing Monday gaffe
Story Highlights
There were three crucial errors that led to the ending to Packers-Seahawks game
Ex-officiating supervisor thought Golden Tate should have gotten pass interference
Biggest mistake was not huddling to converse before two officials ruled differently
"Grand Larceny: Packers Get Robbed of Win in Seattle.''
-- Headline in this morning's Oshkosh (Wis.) Northwestern
And this is how it happened: a lack of communication.
Replacement referee Wayne Elliott and his officiating crew, particularly side judge Lance Easley, erred on the biggest stage in American sports because they weren't prepared for the slam-bang instantaneous judgments National Football League officials have to make in seconds. All along, the league has said that lesser officials can be trained to do an adequate job while the regular officials were locked out in a contract dispute with the league. But Monday night's Green Bay defeat, snagged from the jaws of victory, proved that assertion wrong.
The three errors that led to the wrong team winning in Seattle:
1. The missed offensive pass interference call on Golden Tate. Two officials, Easley and back judge Derrick Rhone-Dunn, were staring at the crowd of four Packers and two Seahawks as Russell Wilson's pass arced toward the end zone. Just before they all rose to try to catch the pass, Tate shoved Green Bay cornerback Sam Shields to the ground. Now, it's often said that all's fair in love and war and Hail Mary passes into NFL end zones, but as one former official told me this morning: "You let almost anything go on Hail Marys, but not the blatant knockdowns like that.''
This flag-happy crew threw 28 of them Monday night (four were declined and 24 marked off); Rhone-Dunn or Easley should have thrown a 29th. As former NFL official and officiating supervisor Jim Daopoulos, now an NBC consultant, said this morning: "By pushing [Shields] out of the way, Tate had the ability to be in a better position to make the catch. They should have seen the obvious push. That's a call you have to make."
2. The inability to recognize the difference between simultaneous possession and one receiver trying to steal the ball from a defender. The ball hit Green Bay safety M.D. Jennings first, and he appeared on the replays to pull the ball in and secure it. "It was pinned to my chest the whole time, even when we were on the pile,'' Jennings said afterward. "[Tate] was fighting for it. He was trying to get the ball out.'' The most telling part of the replay, if you watch closely, is that Tate's right arm, as the pile of bodies fall to the turf, flails out for a moment when Jennings has the ball, and then Tate puts his arm back in the scrum. Easley should have been able to see that.
It's hard to watch any replay and rule Tate had simultaneous possession with Jennings, but the pool report after the game with referee Elliott said that was his ruling -- simultaneous possession. And in that case, the ball is awarded to the offensive player. "But look at the play,'' said Daopoulos. "Simultaneous possession is two men catching the ball at the same time. Tate sticking his [left] hand in there is not enough for simultaneous possession.''
3. The lack of a crew conference when the play ends. This was the most egregious mistake of all. With the regular officials, after what appears to be a close call like this one, the side judge and back judge would confer with any other officials who had a view of it, with the referee hustling in to adjudicate. But Elliott was nowhere to be seen, and before he even asked Rhone-Dunn what he'd seen, Easley looked at the pile and shot his arms up and ruled a touchdown. Rhone-Dunn at the same time appeared to be preparing to call a touchback. But Easley's touchdown call usurped Rhone-Dunn's first reaction -- and that was to call the play dead by waving his arms over his head.
If Easley doesn't make that call, he and Rhone-Dunn could have discussed what they'd seen, and Elliott would have had time to run into the end zone to officiate the discussion and make a ruling. A veteran NFL side judge would have realized the crew conference was the way to go here, but Easley is not an experience NFL hand.
Now, as to the replay: Let's be clear about what can and can't be reviewed. Simultaneous possession between the goal lines cannot be reviewed. Simultaneous possession in the end zone can be reviewed. That's an important distinction that many in the media have not made since Elliott went under the hood.
|NFL Podcast with Peter King
|Peter King breaks down the final play of the Green Bay Packers vs. Seattle Seahawks game on Monday night. Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt discusses what it's like to sack quarterbacks he's watched since he was a child, and Don Banks talks about the current state of the NFL.
Daopoulos pointed out that a veteran referee -- say, an Ed Hochuli -- would go under the hood and not need advice from the replay official upstairs. But in this case, Daopoulos believes both the replay official, Howard Slavin, and the NFL officiating supervisor, former ref Phil Luckett, were speaking to Elliott while he was looking at the different angles of the replay. Daopoulos believes they should have said to him, "This is an interception." That's what he would have said had he been in the booth.
As for me, I've always taken the NFL's replay rule at its exact word -- there must be 100 percent indisputable evidence that a play should be overturned for the referee to overturn it. I thought Jennings caught the ball. But I've watched the play 25 times, minimum, and is it 100 percent certain that he caught it and maintained possession all the way to the ground? That's a hard call to make.
"My feeling,'' said Daopoulos, "is there's certainly enough visual evidence to overturn the play. When he is under the hood, he is certainly hearing from the replay official and the supervisor.''
The next question, obviously, is this: What were Slavin and Luckett telling Elliott? Obviously it wasn't enough to convince him to overturn the call. I asked Daopoulos whether he thought maybe -- maybe -- Elliott was cognizant of his life becoming a living hell if he overturned a game-deciding play against the home team in the rabid environment this game was in.
"His life is going to be a living hell if he doesn't,'' said Daopoulos.
One final point: A league official told me this morning there is no methodology in place for the league to overturn the officiating gaffe. The call stands. The result stands: Seattle 14, Green Bay 12. In the eyes of America, it will always be Green Bay 12, Seattle 7. But that doesn't matter. Except that it should hasten a resolution to the officiating lockout.
Clearly, the league had been walking on eggshells. There were some bad officiating errors in the first three weeks prior to Monday night -- Tennessee getting 12 free yards on its game-winning field-goal drive, 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh getting two extra replay challenges he shouldn't have, both Sunday -- but you can't say a team lost a game it should have won. Until now.
It was only a matter of time before something like this happened. It took until the league's 48th game of the season, but the wrong team winning a game because of a replacement official's blunder could have happened in the first game of the season or the 101st ... or the 267th: the Super Bowl.
Now it's up to Roger Goodell, as the agent of the owners, to do something about it.

there is already a vast improvement in the confidence of your lines from the first page to now.
keep at it, the pencils are getting better and better.
i'm liking this more graphic approach to your coloring! seems to suit your line more. anyways keep up the good work!
grief: thanks for the encouragement. i haven't looked back at the old pages for a while...it was actually a pretty big relief to see that i haven't remained static for all this time.

pk! hahah thanks! haven't seen you in a while, but that could be cause i didn't look that hard...glad to see you're alive :]
i recently scavenged 3 square mirror tiles, so i mounted one and finally started self portraiting. crits? i know there's no ref, but...as a composition?
Attachment 672610
Absolutely love your girls.
Your pencils are fabulous!
Can't wait to see more.
that is all.
woo sexy sexy work on your recent girlsketches.
I really like where you're going with the stylisation and coloring experiments.
keep working
You already know I love you so I'll get right to it
you should totally implement some more graphic elements to fit your art, I think it'd look great.
I would do a drawover of your lines to show you what I mean but some douche stole my tablet so I can't really do that :(
but first off one thing you could do is include some more developed lines, you've done really well with the whole drawing with minimal lines so now you've gotta get it to the next stage! Basically what I'm saying is: lines on the shadow side darker and thicker, lines on the light sides thinner, and around highlights even go to the point of getting rid of lines completely
two, try some design elements to compliment your figures. Look at graphic designs for inspirations or nature always works well, like drawing rocks n' shit, ya know... cause rocks are dope as fuck. Personally I've been trying to discover for myself what looks awesome in terms of abstract shapes, and I must say, it's been a pain in the ass and I feel like I've only traveled like a mile of the entire journey but I've developed somethings that I'm starting to see work consistently. I've noticed that totally abstract shapes rendered with very realistic form creates this crazy cool looking effect (I really wish I could show you what I mean exactly, but then again I think it'd be cool to see what you come up with just the description alone :P)
and uhhh fiftheth
i noticed you have some comments about composition, for your self portrait(s) i'd recommend not even worrying about composition yet, just try to get it to really look like you the best you can as that's the hardest part of doing it(*EDIT* that's what she said). I've been doing self portraits every day since october of last year so I can say I've done a few myself. I can also say I still have a hard fucking time(that's what she said) getting it to just look like me. So really try to nail the technical aspects before moving onto anything fancy(that's also what she said)
but if you do want advice on composition, on your self portrait; the background and yo face both have similar kind of... you know... blobs. what I'm saying is separate how you create the background with how you make yo face, they're too similar. The background pulls just as much attention as yo face. Making a smooth or flat background are the most popular ways, but there are no rules so if you can discover something that works aesthetically go fer it.
OKAY SO that's probably enough for you to munch on for a little bit
Man, I dig the style you got going on!
it's been a long break, but yeah, i could use some crits
Attachment 902312
whoo it's been a while. i've been trying to...get out of my rut, and actually learn some shit for once. trying to learn how to paint through daily self portraits, and practicing to the same line sensitivity i've got on paper, digitally.
i'd love some crits, as harsh as necessary, especially on the self portrait. what details am i getting wrong? what general techniques am i executing improperly, or simply missing? am i not paying attention to values the way i should be? do the colors work? anything, really.

pencil pushing? That title sounds interesting! You got some lovely ideas in your sketchbook. Great progress! Thanks for sharing! Keep on posting pencil drawings!
thanks for the kind words surus, here are some pencils for you
a bunch of sketches from imagination from the last two days. the last one is a base for the rosie-the-necro chow going on this week. they're in a non-moleskine, so i'm not really used to the paper texture yet. they were also scanned on the crappy scanner i've got at home, unfortunately...i haven't figured out how to tweak the settings to get what i like, and the bed isnt as large as i'd like.

hey you're still alive! cool :) haven't seen ya around lol-- anyways me and league created a new sketchgroup cause our old one failed :) be cool if you could join, more of the old gang :D
your thumbnails are impressive :), you should do more of those! and then bring those into some of your fullsize art too :)
tbh self portraits are just a thing you have to keep grinding away at, and for me i have to remember to draw the form rather than attempt to draw a picture through a portal/window. that and trying to get a good likeness, expression, changing the POV, and then whatever artistic explorations you can get in :)
i know you love doing washes, and i love the tone of yours too :) but i'm pretty sure even actual watercolor washes can be worked a lot more
besides that: i think maybe working on more natural poses, i love the awkward elegance but they can have more flow i think
it was nice seein ya! :)
nice work, long time no update !

Today the IMF announced that, a week after the elections, the Interim Iraq Government has signed a Standby Agreement. This makes Iraq eligible for further IMF loans and commits it to following a list of IMF economic policies and meeting certain targets. It was a requirement of the Nov 2004 Paris Club debt agreement.
Jubilee Iraq has been consistently arguing for the last few years that:
(1) Significant longterm agreements such as this should be negotiated by a permanant elected Iraqi government.
(2) Many of the specific policy recomendations of the IMF could be disruptive, increasing poverty and unrest in Iraq.
(3) Cancelation of Saddam's odious debt should not be linked to economic conditions which infringe on Iraq's soverignity.
We discussed our concerns with the IMF Managing Director Rodrigo de Rato at the Autumn Meetings in Washington this October, and with other officials at the 2004 Autumn Meetings. We have also lobbied significant creditor and IMF shareholder countries on these issues.
We have not yet seen the full details of the Standby Agreement to properly comment on it. However the timing of the deal was very worrying, coming in the period after elections and before the formation of the interim government. If it had come a few weeks earlier then it may well have become an election issue and resulted in the Iraqi people expressing their views via the ballot box. If it had been delayed for a few months then the permanent elected government would have been able to negotiate it from a position of greater strength.
Even before the signing of the Standby Agreement one of the key policies it undoubtably requires was implemented. Fuel prices were dramatically increased, sparking riots in many parts of Iraq.
The FT reports that restructuring of Iraq's outstanding debt is entering a pivotal stage this week. However, not everybody is pleased with a process that has been moving ahead at a rapid speed.
But some of the large commercial creditors say they are being treated unfairly and are getting a worse deal than government lenders.
Iraq launched the offer to the larger private creditors last month, giving them a choice of exchanging the debt owed to them for either bonds or loans. The offer, orchestrated by US banks JP Morgan and Citigroup, follows the completion of cash buyback deals with smaller commercial private creditors. Ali A. Allawi, minister of finance, said Iraq was "demonstrating its commitment to treating all creditors in a fair, transparent and even-handed way".
Save for one meeting in Dubai in May, there have been no two-way negotiations, claim some creditors. One person close to the so-called London Club, says Iraq has pursued a take-it-or-leave-it approach that is "unilateral" and "coercive". Another individual who is working with Hyundai said: "Iraq has not followed any principled process."
Among the most contentious issues for private creditors is the treatment of past due interest. The interest is being calculated according to a Libor-based uniform accrual rate, not on the basis of the original contractual provisions of the claims. As a result, "The debt write-off for the private sector is well in excess of what was announced jointly by Iraq and the Paris Club," said Richard Segal, chief strategist at Argo Capital, the hedge fund, "When it's all over, the private sector will receive half the 20 per cent net present value proclaimed by the Paris Club." Some private creditors argue that the assumptions that went into the Paris Club deal were flawed. They were based on IMF debt sustainability calculations that assumed a price of $26 for a barrel of oil. Oil prices are hovering just below $60.
Peter Bartlett, managing director of Exotix said: "The speed of the process may risk excluding some significant Iraqi debt holders from the restructuring process because they simply have not received or seen the exchange offer and so have not reviewed their options." He added: "There are a lot of people who want to see a more open and consensual settlement, but due to the tight timetable and pressures for a quick and clean exchange deal that has not been part of the equation this time around."
Lee Buchheit, partner at Cleary Gottlieb, the law firm advising the Iraqi government, said: "It is simply not possible to negotiate separate deals with each creditor or even each creditor group. Every creditor has an argument for why it, above all others, should receive a better deal. "But it is lethal to start down the road of giving preferential treatment to individual creditors or groups of creditors."
Disgruntled creditors might still accept Iraq's offer by today for lack of other options. Sources close to Iraq's advisers say they expect a significant participation rate.

Founder and retired CEO of the Vanguard group
I was a runner for a little brokerage firm here in Philadelphia, delivering securities from one little brokerage firm to another. One of the other runners looked at me and he said, "Bogle, I'm gonna tell you everything you need to know about the investment business." And I said, "What's that, Ray?" And he said, "Nobody knows nuthin'." And it turns out, Ray was right. People say there are great performers out there, but it's a lot of randomness. None of us are smarter than the markets.
We went through our archives for nearly a decade of collected wisdom that still holds up.

This parking does not currently offer online bookings.
49 people recommend parking here 39 left comments
It was convenient to get to and the parking lot and attendant was very nice. Just a couple of blocks walk to the ball field.
Loved the location! The warning against larger vehicles not fitting is appropriate (I have a small SUV, which was still very tight for that parking spot). Not complaining, but I would suggest that the owner measure the width of the spot and include it in the description. This would allow users to know exactly whether the space is appropriate for their vehicle. ParkWhiz is the way to go, I use you every time I need to park downtown.
Easy to find. Got in and out with no issues.
I was simply amazed at how close we were to the ballpark and how easy it was to get in and out. The spot was tight but nevertheless convenient. I don't know how safe it would be at night in an alley but we are a couple of country folk in the big city. Thanks a million. Very appreciative and very pleased with my experience.
Close to Wrigley - easy to find, and yes, agree it's a tight space. Would use again.
Though we were not able to make it for the game, I would still recommend it based on other peoples feedback and its proximity to Wrigley Field.
This is a private residence just two blocks from Wrigley. Garage and parking pad for our greystone building. 3622 number is on the two-car garage. Parking Pad just to the right (when looking at the garage) between the garage and a wooden fence. It is best to have all passengers leave the car first and then back in.
This spot works for all cars and small SUVs but not large SUVs such as Tahoes, Excursions, etc.
Managed by 3622 N Fremont Parking. This location is a residence.
Nearby destinations: Wrigley Field, Cubby Bear, Chicago Goose Island-Wrigleyville, Red Ivy, Chicago Pride Festival.
This spot works for CARS and VERY SMALL SUVs but won't fit large SUVs such as Tahoes, Excursions, Escalades, Explorers, etc.
We are located 2 blocks from Wrigley Field - just two blocks East of Sheffield and just steps North of Addison. Fremont is a one-way street going South.
Head East on Addison from Clark and take a left on to Wilton Street. Wilton Street is right after you cross the L tracks. Take a right in the first alley on the right (just one apartment building from Addison). If you get to Waveland on Wilton, you have gone too far. Once you are in the alley, make the first left. From there, proceed a few houses down. You will see a two-car garage with the numbers 3622 on it. Our parking spot is the one to the right of the garage when looking at it. It is a parking pad between our garage and a wooden fence.
The alley is parallel to Wilton and Fremont. We are on the Fremont side which is the Eastern side of the alley.
If trash cans are holding your spot, you may move them when you arrive.

It includes excellent applications for RAD (GORM and ProjectCenter). The CD is available for i486, AMD64, Apple Mac PowerPC, and Sun UltraSPARC computers.
vetetris is a game written in Java. It's similar to tetris, but it is played in 3D. There are figures which are falling that have to be placed in the right manner. You can rotate the blocks in six different directions and move them in five directions. As time goes on they move faster and faster, and it gets harder to put them in the right spot.

Details are starting to emerge about a new plan from Microsoft to keep supporting Windows XP Home as a system for the new market of ultra-low- cost PCs (ULPCs). I feel like saying something about it, and yet I feel a pang of self restraint. A reader recently wrote to say that my "socialistic agenda" was "Orwellian at best," which seems pretty bad. I always thought I was genuinely less tendentious than some who do what I do. I will admit to a strong dislike for software patents – mainly because they are so unworkable that they just look silly when you view them closely. I have also been known to cast pebbles at the business practices of certain corporations – not just Microsoft, but also Apple, Wal-Mart, and the occasional patent troll – but I never claimed that these business had no reason to exist (well – except maybe the patent troll).

First Year Experience Main Menu
Common Read
Armstrong's Common Read text for the 2013 - 2014 academic year is College: What It Was, Is, and Should Be by Andrew Delbanco. In his award-winning book, prominent cultural critic Delbanco defends the traditional four-year college experience, and warns that it is becoming a privilege reserved for the relatively rich. "In arguing for what a true college education should be, he demonstrates why making it available to as many young people as possible remains central to America's democratic promise." He also criticizes the "narrow aim of obtaining a preprofessional credential" and "mounts a vigorous defense of a broadly humanistic education for all." (Princeton University Press, 8/11/2013)

Join NARP's leadership in the nation's capital for the 2014 Spring Council Meeting. The meeting runs from Monday, April 28th through Wednesday, April 30th, and is open to all NARP Members. Held at the DoubleTree Hotel in Silver Spring, we'll look at ongoing NARP campaigns to improve America's passenger train network, check in with grassroots organizers from across the U.S., and hear the latest from Amtrak and state leaders about passenger rail projects that are changing how America travels.
Additionally, NARP Members will head to Capitol Hill on Tuesday, April 29th, to push Congress to build the passenger rail system Americans deserve.
